Worst webcomic?

I know there was at least 2 attempted rapes. There was... some chick, and then the chick dressed like a nurse (or is a nurse), but Domic's brother saves her, or something like that.

You also have to think of the setting in place, Bacon. I know the idea of rape is cruel, however judging by the scenery, technology and whatnot they are in a darker age, one in which rape is more than likely prominent, just like in our own history.

Alright, so it's in this old-ish fantasy world, but he doesn't have to include. And if he did, it should be for more than just the purpose of having the character have to get saved.

Its something nobody should use, but it is used in everything, like drugs murder or thievery. The only difference is the medium in which one finds it over the top. It also builds a history that is clearly out of the norm, something he wanted to do in the first place.

Well, it's a fantasy world, so he really could have made his own history. But where's the plague, and Catholics being killed, and dysentary? The attempted rape was just there to have Dominic's brother save her, and have them ~fall in love~.

The rape didn't effect the story, and thus was unnecessary.

There was no rape, though. It was attempted, like you said. Plus there was no real way of telling it would have actually happened one way or another as it was interrupted. The bastard attempting it could have passed out drunk. In the story, it was foreshadowed that there would be some kind of standoff like this, but how things came into play were probably even a surprise to Mookie himself. I've read that many times with my favorite authors. They don't kill the characters, the characters just die, etc.

As for the plague, its the Necromancer's blight which just spreads through the body until it kills you, the persecution of the Orc people, and so on. There's many things that Mookie has done to fit past issues in with his current story. Anyways the brother and that girl don't really work out. Dysentery, if you can consider it as such, was the deaths of millions of Orcs from "natural" disasters. Not in the same context as a disease, but it kills just as many.

Fighting with Xeraphem is not going anywhere, so I give up.

...But the hell is that comic?

I never thought "It has rape in it" was a trait of a bad story. I mean, having it over-used, yes, but not when it's not.

Also, I don't think Dominic is a Mary Sue. He was, but that was really toned down later on. Luna, however, quite definitely is!

I don't read it anymore, btw. I got bored of it after a good while.

Got an example? I didn't see anything like that.

Batbro wrote:(token gay character, anyone?)

Oh GOD yes! Ugh! I mean, I can believe he was homosexual, but once he was made so, he lost his entire complex character and just became 'that gay guy'.

Batbro wrote:Dominic was totally his self-insert.

Actually, he's not. His father is the self-insert, according to the author.

Edit:

Wait, when the hell did people here get civil and considerate? I mean, when I complained about XKCD people kept telling me to shut up and actually accused me of hating people who read it! And I still have nightmares over the time I said that I don't care who gets to voice the Futurama cast...

So the cat gets electrocuted on every strip, and the only other joke is that it is a cat.

Why was there filler after the fifth page? Was the author really so busy that drawing a couple more panels of this cat getting electrocuted and acting like a normal cat was impossible to fit into their schedule?

The token gay character was the most obvious example. That series came out AT THE EXACT SAME TIME as when gay marriage was THE hot topic for debate.

Anyway, as long as we're talking about bad comics....how about Raine Dog? Don't know it?

Alright, who here read Ozy and Millie (I used to like it before, once again, it became the author's political soapbox)? Remember David Craig Simpson, the author? Well, after ending Ozy and Millie, he changed his name to Dana Simpson, and is now a transvestite. Okay, not my cup of tea, but that's his business. Raine Dog is a comic he made as a metaphor for the troubles that transvestites have to go through. The one problem, his self-insert/main character is a fucking DOG.

There is a BIIIIIIIIIG difference between transgenderism and BESTIALITY, good sir.
